Abstract
Many bacteria and viruses have killed thousands of individuals across the world. From bathrooms, some of these deadly viruses and germs are aerosolized. In an effort to solve the problem of airborne bacterial transmission through toilet bowls, this project team has set off to design a smart toilet device. By shutting the seat lid while hazardous bacteria and viruses are released into the air during flushing, this device will reduce their ability to spread. The smart lavatory appliance is constructed using an Arduino microcontroller in conjunction with two electric motors (a brush DC motor and a stepper motor) and two sensors (an ultrasonic sensor and a button sensor). The cost of this device is intended to be low, and installation is simple. One of the most significant problems confronting India is the prevalence of disease in public toilets, especially in the urinals, about which no one seems to care. As a result, contaminated urinals cause diseases to users by spreading infectious germs; therefore, full urinal cleaning is required to maintain hygienic conditions. These days, the robotics industry includes computer programming languages and sensors. The automatic urinal flushing system has been available on the market for a long time. But none of them are intelligent. Its purpose is to supply the caretaker with information on the water level. A caretaker can utilize the data collected from the automated system to fill the storage tank and prevent a lack of water needed for flushing. The suggested technology has been tested in a variety of environments. The findings demonstrate that the suggested system is operating as anticipated under typical circumstances. Additionally, it will automatically begin flushing when impediments or objects are identified. If an odor is detected, the fragrance device will also activate automatically. The design addresses the current water issue by flushing with limited water. This approach mechanism is completely automatic and does not require any human.
